This has to be one of the most shocking omissions of all time. How does a world-class batsman like Faf du Plessis not find a place in the Proteas squad? A player with the caliber of the former SA skipper would walk into any T20 side in the world.

The top-order batsman has scored 1528 runs in 50 T20I games. His batting average and strike rate in this format are 35.53 and 134.39 respectively. This includes 10 fifties and a hundred.

To make matters more confusing, he was one of the best performers in the decent concluded CPL 2021 and IPL 2021. He had even scored an amazing 86 in the IPL 2021 Final which ensured that the Chennai Super Kings won their 4th title. It is baffling that one of the current best batters from SA isn’t even in the T20I side.
